DIAGRAM 6- 2 DNS

The computer will analyses the domain name configurated in DVR, and return to the current IP, as the

picture shows underlined in red. When the IP correspond to the embedded DVRs IP in Public internet, it

means the DDNS is setting right. If they are not, please check the network connection of embedded DVR

and DDNS information.

5.2. PORT MAPPING

Port mapping is mapping a port of outside web hosts IP address to a machine inside web, and provide the

service. When user connects to the port of the IP, the server will automatically map the request to the

corresponding machine inside LAN.

With the function of port mapping, we can map many ports of a machines IP address to different machines

different ports inside web. The port mapping can also have other special agent functions, like POP, SMTP,

TELNET, etc.

Theoretically, it can provide more than sixty thousand ports.

For example, if we want to map a web server which has an IP address of 192.168.111.10, we just need to

input the IP address and TCP port 80 into the port mapping chart of the router.

There are two ways to map the port: UPnP function automatically map and modify the routers port mapping

chart by manual.

5.2.1. UPNP FUNCTION

88 / 105

In order to get connection to the Embedded DVR through Public network, we need to set the Router to cross

the NAT of Embedded DVR. UPnP can make the NAT cross automatically by the UPnP agreement of

Embedded DVR, and dont have to set the Router.

Note: to realize the UPnP Function, there must be Router support and enable the UPnP Function.

TheTheTheThe firstfirstfirstfirst stepstepstepstep

Connect the Router to the network, get to the Menu of the Router, set the Router, and enable the UPnP

Function.

Routers made by different manufacturers may have some difference, please refer to the specification

carefully before setting the Router.

TheTheTheThe secondsecondsecondsecond stepstepstepstep

Connect the Embedded DVR to the Router; the configuration will automatically gain the IP address or static

IP. After setting up the IP, click the Advanced Config. And get to the XXX, ports and multicast etc. choose

to open the Enable at the UPnP port mapping

TheTheTheThe thirdthirdthirdthird stepstepstepstep

Enter into the Router management interface; detect the port if there is already a Port mapping. If there is, it

shows UPnP settings finished.

TheTheTheThe forthforthforthforth stepstepstepstep

Input the IP address in IE, and add port number of the Embedded DVR, for example: 155.157.12.227:81. If

you want to enter by the Client Software, use the TCP port offered by the outer net.

Note: if there are a few embedded DVRs need to set the UPnP function, in order to avoid IP conflict,

set the ports of embedded DVR into different ports numbers. Otherwise, it will choose the embedded DVR

port set preceded as the first choice.

5.2.2. MANUAL PORT MAPPING

TheTheTheThe firstfirstfirstfirst stepstepstepstep

Connect the Embedded DVR to the Router, set the static IP.

TheTheTheThe secondsecondsecondsecond stepstepstepstep

Log in Router, enter into the configuration menu of Router, and set the menu. Then get to port, set the IP

distributed by the Embedded DVR, and set the rule of port mapping, add HTTP and TCP port into mapping

list.

89 / 105

Default access ports of Embedded DVR include HTTP port 80 and TCP port 8000, if the ports are occupied

by the other devices, please modify the default port of the Embedded DVR into other vacant ports.

TheTheTheThe thirdthirdthirdthird stepstepstepstep

Input the public net IP address in the IE, and add the port number of the Embedded DVR you want to access

after the IP, for example: http://155.157.12.227:81. If you want to access by Client Software, you can use the

outer net TCP port directly.

Notice: for detail configuration setting, please refer to the user manual of Router.

5.3. NTP FUNCTION

Enable NTP function; make the time synchronization with both the DVR and GPS clock server, to ensure the

accuracy of device time.

5.3.1. INTERNET CONFIGURATION

Get to the CONFIGURATIONNETWORK, choose Advanced, and then choose NTPto set.

After the device can access the Internet, NTP server can use the standard NTP server as the time. For

example, the server of Chinas national research center (IP address: 210.72.145.44). Input the IP address and

domain name of relative server at NTP setting.

To activate NTP, click to choose Enable.

The interval of changing time is from 1 to 65535 minutes.

5.3.2. INTRANET CONFIGURATION

5.6. HDD REDUNDANCY

HDD redundancy function can backup the recording file, user can retrieve files by HDD redundancy if single

HDD damaged, by which improve the systems safety.

95 / 105

Hard disk redundancy function is through the designated channel data double backup in HDD, so DVR need

a standalone HDD for redundancy function.

HDDHDDHDDHDD redundancredundancredundancredundancyyyy configurationconfigurationconfigurationconfiguration

Open main menu enter into the storage configuration, choose one HDD as the redundancy HDD, click

setting.

Redundancy HDD must be an independent HDD, user can set several HDDs as a redundancy HDD group.

Once a HDD is assigned as redundancy HDD, the recording data can be saved in both normal HDD and

redundancy HDD.

Data on redundancy HDD should be automatically cycle coverage, cycle period depends on the recording

data and redundant HDDs capacity.

Note: Make sure 2pcs HDD at least in DVR, one for read and write, another for redundancy.

CCCChannelhannelhannelhannel redundancyredundancyredundancyredundancy configurationconfigurationconfigurationconfiguration

User can choose part channels or all channels to set redundancy backup. Please get to ConfigurationRecord, choose redundancy channel, check mark Redundancy.

Note: the data in channel turn off redundancy only is recorded in normal reading and writing HDD if

the redundancy is not enabled.

RetrieveRetrieveRetrieveRetrieve HDDHDDHDDHDD redundancyredundancyredundancyredundancy

User can retrieve backup recording data from redundancy HDD when RW HDD damage or data lost. Firstly,

shut down DVR and remove damaged HDD, then restart DVR;

Secondly, Get into Main menuStorage, set redundancy HDD as a reading and writing HDD, thenit can be searched.

5.7. HDD S.M.A.R.T

S.M.A.R.T: Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology

S.M.A.R.T HDD can analysis head, disc, motor, circuit operation, history and default security values via

monitor instruction in HDD and surveillance software in host. Alarm will be sent to user automatically when

the value is outside the scope of the security situation.

Detection parameters of Seagate HDD for example are divided into seven: ID detection code, Attribute

Description, Threshold, Attribute Value, Worst, Date, and Status.

1111 IDIDIDID detectiondetectiondetectiondetection codecodecodecode

96 / 105

ID detection code is not the only; manufacturer can use different ID code or increase or decrease its quantity

according to the detected parameters quantity.

For example: the ID detection code of WEASTERN DIGITALs product is 04, parameter is Start/Stop

Count, but the parameter of same code in Fujitsus product is Number of times the spindle motor is

activated.

2222 AttributeAttributeAttributeAttribute DescriptionDescriptionDescriptionDescription

Attribute Description: name of detection item. Manufacturer can increase or decrease . As ATA standard

update constantly, sometimes different models in same brand maybe different ,but must ensure major test

items specified in S.M.A.R.T .(although different manufacturers have specific naming convention ,the

essence of monitoring is the same.)

1 Read Error Rate

2 Spin up Time

4 Start/Stop Count

5 Relocated Sector Count

7 Seek Error Rate

9 Power-on Hours Count

10 Spin up Retry Count

194 Power temperatures

195 ECC on the Fly count

197 Current Pending Sector Count

198 Disconnection beyond repair

199 CRC cyclic redundancy check

200 Write Error Count

Note: Different manufacturers and different models have different attribute description ,user has no

need to know exact meaning ,attribute detection values enough for them.

3333 ThresholdThresholdThresholdThreshold

It is specified by manufacturer calculated through a specific formula. If there is a attribute value lower than

the threshold, which means HDD become unreliable and data stored is very easy to lose. Composition and

97 / 105

size of reliable attribute values is different for different HDD. It should be noted that, ATA standard only

provides some SMART parameters; it does not provide a specific value. "Threshold" value is determined by

manufacturers based on products features. Thus, results tested by manufacturer provided detection software

is very different from testing software under Windows (such as AIDA32)

4444 AttributeAttributeAttributeAttribute VVVValuealuealuealue

Attribute value is the maximum normal value; the general range is from 1 to 253. Typically, the maximum

attribute value is 100 (for IBM, Quantum, and Fujitsu) or 253 (for Samsung). Of course, there are some

exceptions, for example, some models produced by Western Digital have two different attribute values, and

property value is set 200 when initial production, but after then it is changed into 100.

5555 WorstWorstWorstWorst

Worst value is the largest non-normal value in HDDs running. It is a value calculate for HDDs cumulative

running, it is constantly refreshed according to running cycle, and very closed to the threshold. Whether the

HDD is normal by S.M.A.R.T analysis is based on the comparison with threshold. The maximum value

appear when new HDD start to use, which would continue to decrease with the everyday use or error happen.

Consequently, larger attribute values mean better quality and higher reliability; smaller values

mean more possibility of failure increases.

6666 DatesDatesDatesDates

Actual values of HDDs detection items, many items are cumulative values.

7777 StatusStatusStatusStatus

It is current statues of HDDs every attribute after analyzing and comparing above attribute values by

S.M.A.R.T, also is important information to judge HDD healthy or not.

There are three statuses: Normal, Alarm and Error----which is closely related with Pre-failure/advisory BIT.
